Are there any letters after the 336 on the barrel?

 

The caliber of the rifle would help along with pics. Does this rifle have a straight or pistol grip stock?

 

It is a '69. Sounds a tad high, but not out of reason. If you really like it, offer $550 or $575.

 

Oops. Forgot the caliber: .30-30, and it doesn't have a letter after the model number. It does have a straight grip stock.

 

So, without a T after model, it's not a Texan?

 

Marlin did not stamp the letter designation on many of its rifles starting in the late 1960s and into the 1970s. If that rifle has a straight stock--its a Texan.

 

Ive been looking for a 69 Saddle Ring Texan for some time now. Its my birth year and regretting not buying one at a show 2 years ago. For me, Id pay that but it means something to me. For most, its another Texan. In March of 1969, Marlin changed plants. They went from New Haven to NORTH Haven. The barrel will be marked as to which plant it came from. I would take either but a New Haven would be special to me as there was only 3 months out of that year it would have come from the old plant.

I surely woud be interested in where its at if you do not buy it. It would be a Marlin I could check off my list of Wants!

Values can very somewhat by location, but those features do usually bring a higher asking price in what I've seen; in great shape even better. Anyway, that asking price would be high for me, especially in the more common 30-30 caliber, but that's just me. Much depends on how much you like it though, and never hurts to haggle some, then if buying it don't look back.. just enjoy!
Good luck to you.

 

Hayden I sent you a pm.

 

It's a bit high for me too, but, can you hear that... listen closely...squeak, squeak, yep...I'm walking. It looks good though, and you want it, just get it, enjoy it, and don't look back.

 

That could be the twin of the one I bought about two years ago for $325.I would say mine is about 95%.I would not take $650 for it right now.Mine is 30-30 also and I prefer it that way.It is one of my favorite firearms.

 

I think it's a bit high HOWEVER if it's what you want, paying a few extra dollars is no big deal! I found a 1968 same rifle/chambering/brass ring last year for $349 OTD - but I think that was a steal of a deal. $600 at this very moment in MY opinion....is too high.

I don't think so......

 

wish it were a .35 nice texan anyway

 

Hooweeee thats nice blackbarry. What year? Its newer as it has a square lever instead of round.

1971. It too refinishing the stock and home re-bluing of the barrel. I re-plated the trigger. Then a nice Leupold to see my target.

 

I know prices vary greatly by location but just as a comparison there is one very similar in great shape with sticker still on fore end near me here in PA for $375.

 

I love those brass ring Texans. You can get a bulls eye for the stock at Brownells. Offer them a few bucks less because of the missing bulls eye. It looks like some one tried to install a sling swivel where the bulls eye should be. But the rifle itself looks in great shape.

Well right now you can still find these old Texans that are in great shape for a good price every once in a blue moon.The thing is these blue moons are getting scarcer and scarcer.

 

That's about right for my area
screws don't look boogered
i was in the LGS yesterday
they had a NH 336
squared handle
straight stock
no saddle ring
dont remember year
but they were asking as much
As soon I saw it I thought it was a Texan
the shop owner knows me and said
no it's a not a texan
